Three Hundred Zeroes: New Book about hiking the Appalachian Trail:
I love to go out onto the Appalachian Trail and hike for long periods.
I set out in 2007, when I turned 60 to celebrate that glorious event by doing a thru-hike of the A.T. It ended up taking two years due to the unforeseen. I’ve recently released a book about my entire hike of the A.T. This book offers an in-depth view of what it is like to travel this world class jewel of a trail through fourteen states. The title is THREE HUNDRED ZEROES. It’s a 328-page book, with 39 photographs, that tells a humorous adventure story that captures what it is like to hike that trail for six months with a hammock and a ham radio. In the middle of it all, I had to take three hundred "Zero Days" for a six-artery heart bypass operation. The book is a fun read and at the same time is an informative take on how to prepare for such an adventure. For more information about the book, check out the website: threehundredzeroes.com or my blog at blog.threehundredzeroes.com/ . Please do visit the sites; I’d love to have you leave a comment on the blog. The book can be ordered directly at this secure publishers website: https://www.createspace.com/3428889 If you prefer to use an Amazon.com account, it can be ordered there as well, just search Three Hundred Zeroes. If you do read the book, I would love to hear your comments. I really do want to know if you enjoyed the book or found it useful. You might consider sharing your thoughts with other readers on the blog. Also, having lived near the trail in New England most of my life, I can answer question about that region if you need help there, or for that matter, anything in general about long distance hiking.
